The TEXAS TRAIN ROBBERY.


waco. May 2O.-PaSScngerS on
the Missouri Pacific train which al
rived here at 3 o'clock yesterday
morning, give the following particu-
lars of the train robbery on the H.
ternational & Great Northern raj
road at Mcneil station, Is miles from
Austin: Twelve mounted men did
the work and they went at it with so
much system and their plans worked
SO well that they secured large
amount of money from the Pacific
Express company. c. W. White, of
Waco, who was passenger on the
train, says:
The train left Austin for Waco on
time, and when it pulled up at Nc
Neil station, which is at the crossing
of the Austin Il Northwestern road.
it was found that the agent and two
gentlemen who intended to take pas
sage on the Missouri Pacific train
were III charge of twelve robbers,
who had come to the station. well
mounted and armed The robbers
had rolled log i'll front of the en-
gine, and the engineer and fireman
were guarded by some of them, while
others proceeded to fire into the top
OF the cars in the train. The pas
sengers were told that if they kept
quiet they would not be molested,
and they kept quiet. The robbers
fired about 100 shots within the
coaches to help keep up the quiet
ness of the passengers. The robbers
: made for the express car, which was
in charge of A. J. Northacker, and
, demanded that he open it. He re-
fused to obey their command, and
they then broke open the car door
and knocked the expressman down
The safe was broken open and rob,

= one seems to know The amount
has been variously estimated at from
S,1, 900 to S55.0O0. Mr.. White says
the express man would not or coulC
y not tell the amount of money tha
had been taken. He said to Mr.
White: When | saw the fellows star

Years Ago.

ears AsO
Joseph K. Waters. of Big Island, has
found his mascot in a manner that is as
romantic in detail as it is gratifying in |
results. The news of the affair comes |
from Ireland. A very interesting suit in
the Cork assizes. has just been decided
in his favor. The judgment secures
competency for him. The case was dock
eted in this form:
Waters VS.. Waters-The plaintiff, Joseph
Knowles Waters, citizen of the United States Of
America, and the defepdan Counselor T. s.
Waters, of the city of Cork, uncle to plaintiff:
The facts of the case are as follows:
Mr.. Waters father died inestate and left
considerable property, which, by a pre-
vious will or deed of marriage settlement,
land fortunate for plaintiff it was found
on record devised all property at his and
his wifes demise, to the lawfully begot-
ten issue of said marriage. The plaintiff,
the only heir, having emigrated to the
United States, the uncle administered
| upon the estate, advertised for the heir.
Receiving no response to the advertise>
ment, he assumed that the heir was dead,
and being next of kin, took possession of
the property and paid off all encums
brances thereon. Through his counsel
ors. Mr.. Waters became thoroughly in
cd in I'd To ha q
led TO take the step he did to secure a
portion, at least, of the estate TO which
he was the legal heir He entered suit
through an attorney in Cork against his
uncle for the preservation of his rights as
such heir.
The uncle in Ireland, as well as the
other relatives and friends who knew
Mr.. Waters in boyhood-half century
ago-believed that he had been dead TO
many years, and that Waters from Rocl
Island, Illinois, in the United States o
America, was an impostor.
Just before the date for hearing of th
case arrived, MIR. Waters went to Ireland
and is still there. When he made his az
: pearance in court as claimant, his ider
; tity was Immediately acknowledged bot
> by the uncle and several other gentleme
y who knew him in his youth. The Cor
e Examiner says: There was great con
motion in court over the solved mystel
